Yup they went loudly past just before 1.30pm trailing the red, white and blue probably over Wimbledon Tennis after doing the same over London's Gay Pride.

I'd imagine that it wouldn't have been possible to have had two sets of separate colour smoke, so the old RWB it was. I was in the city centre a year ago early in the morning and all branches of the military were setting up their rainbow coloured stands, so no doubt this year was even more extravagant.

On the contrary, the Reds often switch between all-white and red/white/blue smoke in mid-display, as in the first few seconds of this video:



The problem would be that the number of colours in the Rainbow flag doesn't divide evenly into 9.
